Inspired by the Tour de France, there has been a request for a mountain top finish to the Saturday ride. Well, a cafe stop at the top of a bit of a slope anyway.

So, slightly differently this week, but in accordance with discussions at the last AGM, we will finish the club ride at Kewstoke and present the opportunity for a coffee, etc, before heading home. Or if you don't personally want to top up your caffeine, there is the option to end the ride there.

Meet up at Priory School, at 08:30am.

Assuming we all survive the forecast furnace of the early part of this week, Wednesdays cooler air promises perfect conditions for an evening bike ride. The route this week throws a lasso loop around Nailsea, and has Belmont Hill as its feature climb.

I know it’s summer, and you won’t need me to tell you sitting around drinking cold beer and eating barbequed food every day can’t be doing you any favours – so why not come along this Wednesday and spend a couple of hours doing body and soul a power of good.

Once more it’s an open ride, so everyone’s welcome. See you outside Priory School at 18:00

Later than we would normally post a ride, but here is the proposed route for Saturday morning. The ride will be piloted by the club Chairman, lately back from his exploits from Lands End to John O'Groats and than a lot more of Scotland. Just the sort of training that's required for our Saturday ride - probably.

Meet up outside Priory School at 8:30.

Due to injury, we are looking for a ride leader for this weekend's club rides.

If you are planning to ride and want company, contact the Secretary.

All the forecasts agree it’s going to be a beautiful evening for a bike ride on Wednesday. Perfect conditions in fact for a climb of Burrington Coombe and a descent of the Gorge. You don’t get too many evenings like this in an English summer, so make sure you don’t waste this one!

Once more it’s an open ride, so everyone’s welcome. See you outside Priory School at 18:00

With the prospect of typical British summer weather, i.e. breezy and a possibility of rain, here is the proposed route for this week.

I've chosen a route that has generally less potentially muddy roads, given the recent rain, even if there is an element of headwind in the first half. But we should be flying on the way back!

What better way to spend the last Wednesday Evening of June than a bicycle ride up the iconic Cheddar Gorge? All the tourists will have gone home so it’ll just be us and the goats! As if that wasn’t enough, we return via Blagdon lake, the vineyards of the Aldwick Estate and if we’re in the mood, we’ll finish with a bit of a chaingang  down the A370. What’s not to like!

It’s an open ride once again this week, so everyone’s welcome. See you outside Priory School 18:00
